"According to Aristotle, art is a form of expression that has the potential to be appreciated for its beauty and creativity.

He believed that art is a human construct and should not be seen as a replication of nature. Instead, he argued that art is an imitation of a higher ideal, which can be found in beauty, truth, and morality."

Form of escapism too.

The drive to create or maintain art itself is kind of peculiar. Where it is coming from? Indeed.
